​Klopp happy Liverpool have reached the next level

Jurgen Klopp is delighted with how his side performed against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.

The Reds picked up a famous 3-2 win over PSG at Anfield. They were in a 2-0 lead, before PSG made it 2-2 through goals from Thomas Meunier and Kylian Mbappe.

However, Bobby Firmino got the winning goal for the Reds.

Klopp was asked about the consistency his side had shown in recent days to beat Spurs and PSG.

He said to the club's official website: "Yes it helps, each victory helps, but if you play against PSG you have to step up, you have to reach the next level.

"We play at 95 per cent, we lose 5-0, we play at 100 per cent, we can win the game – that's it.

"Denying them so often tonight, I don't think a lot of teams did that so far.

"How I said, I didn't remember a lot of clear chances, but maybe when I watch it again I will see them!

"It was just really good defending, but you cannot defend over 95 minutes, they will have the ball."
